Chemical Peels

Chemical Peels

Chemical peels are a popular cosmetic procedure that involves the application of a chemical solution to the skin, which causes controlled exfoliation of the outer layers. This process reveals fresh, healthier skin underneath, resulting in a smoother, more even complexion.

Chemical peels are common for all age types. Younger men and women often use chemical peels to treat acne breakouts or simply to improve the look of their skin. Those with wrinkles or uneven complexions enjoy smoother, more even toned skin that looks healthier and younger.

At the California Dermatology Institute, we offer various types of chemical peels to address different skin concerns, such as uneven skin tone, fine lines, wrinkles, acne, and sun damage.

Superficial or light chemical peels are gentle and primarily exfoliate the outermost layer of the skin, improving its texture and brightness. Medium-depth chemical peels penetrate deeper into the skin, targeting moderate wrinkles, acne scars, and pigmentation irregularities. Deep chemical peels are more aggressive and can provide significant improvements for deep wrinkles and extensive sun damage.

During a consultation, our dermatology providers will evaluate your skin condition and discuss your desired outcomes. Based on your specific needs, we will recommend the most suitable type of chemical peel and customize the treatment to achieve optimal results. Our experienced team will guide you through the process and provide post-treatment care instructions to ensure a comfortable and successful recovery.
